Hi everyone!
We’re so excited to announce our second visiting author of the spring semester, Lynne Tillman, who will read at Notre Dame on Wednesday February 11th, 2015, at 7:30 in the Eck Center Auditorium. Tillman has fans among both the professors and students of the creative writing program, and we hope you’ll join us to see what her fantastic work is all about.
Lynne Tillman is a novelist, short story writer, and cultural critic, whose creative work bends narrative writing into experimental realms, and whose non-fiction has documented some of the most important periods of art in America. Tillman’s writing is as engaging as it is refined, letting the reader in at the same time it challenges them.
Her novels include American Genius, A Comedy (2006), No Lease on Life (1998), Cast in Doubt (1992), Motion Sickness (1991), and Haunted Houses (1987). Her short story collections include Someday This Will Be Funny (2001), This Is Not It (2002), The Madame Realism Complex (1992), and Absence Makes the Heart (1990). She is currently Professor/Writer-in-Residence in the Department of English at the University at Albany, where she teaches at the School of Visual Arts’ Art Criticism and Writing MFA Program.
This reading is free and open to the public. We hope to see you there!
